Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

Is it possible to install a CDROM OR DVDROM on a HP Desktop M01-FXXX?

I tried but the tray that would hold the CDROM looks a little too small for the CDROMs that I have?

The manual for that line would indicate that it is possible, however it really depends on the CD/DVD drive that you choose.

http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06425327.pdf

Page 14 indicates how to actually add the drive, if your case has an opening where the drive should go.

It might be more to your advantage to just get an external CD/DVD drive, however.  Then there is no question about disk sizes and probably less expensive, too.
